Happy Halloween

Don't look her directly in the eyes or you may end up being one of the victims hanging from her necklace!

At Sara's school, rather than have a Halloween Party, they have a history fair. Each grade is assigned the era that they are studying in history that year. Boring. Sorry, but come on Halloween is all about fun and scary - not over the top gore, but fun scary. Last year when she was a civil war girl, I wanted her to be a dead civil war girl - the teacher wouldn't go for it.

This year, Sara's class was assigned Greek History. Medussa was the obvious answer :) What girl wouldn't want a head full of snakes! A few crochet snake hair extensions, some spray painted Army men and her thick teased hair did the trick. The snakes had button eyes and thread tongues. The best part - she loved it. She was dressed in normal clothes so she wasn't nervous or uncomfortable.

About Me

Thanks for stopping by! It is always strange to write about yourself, isn't it? In a nutshell, I love to create. Quilting has been my passion for the past six years. I am a mom to three and grandma to one.
